Description
- SAFE RESIDENTIAL LANE The streets between homes are for pedestrians only. The close-knit arrangement of homes creates a safe lane.
- PERMEABLE STREET Permeable paving is used all around the street allowing for water infiltration
- SOFT BARRIER Soft barriers such as hedges and short fences are used to seperate compounds. They help improve sense of community as opposed to solid compound walls.
-LOW-RISE DISTRICT The buildings of the district are low-rise with windows facing the street. This creaes “eyes on the street” and fosters a sense of community.
